Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Vanessa Longoria-Carter integrates evidence-based methods to address a range of concerns through remote sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) involves identifying and adjusting unhelpful thoughts and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms like low mood or anxious thinking and to develop practical coping skills. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) combines skills training in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness to help with intense emotions and relationship challenges. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused approach that supports processing distressing memories and the emotions tied to them to lessen their ongoing impact.Choosing the most helpful approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Vanessa works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods align with their needs, goals, and personal preferences. She tailors treatment plans and adjusts techniques over time as progress and priorities evolve.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage in care, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier for clients to attend sessions around work, parenting, or other commitments, and they allow licensed professionals to provide consistent support from different locations.
